Customer Reviews
Anything with pastrami here is 🔥🔥 The pastrami dip is the classic, fully packed pastrami on a roll. Pastrami Chili Cheese Fries, you will get a huge portion. This is a meal by itself. Overall, always a great place to stop for pastrami lovers!
After getting off work late and being absolutely starving, this place once again saved my night. There weren’t many food options open nearby, so I stopped by here to grab something quick—and honestly, it never disappoints. I’ve been here a few times already, and this combo has become my go-to order. The portion is very generous, loaded with flavor, and perfect when you’re seriously hungry after a long day. The meat is tender and well-seasoned, the fries soak up all the sauce, and everything just works together really well. It’s messy in the best way possible and definitely hits the spot. What I really like is the consistency. Every time I come back, the quality is solid and the food tastes just as good as I remember. It’s comforting, filling, and feels like real satisfaction food—not som
Iconic spot in Alhambra and defintely one that i will truly miss when i move out of california! The pastrami and the onion rings are always outstanding and so worth the price and i love ❤️!
1st time Coming here and 1st Time Eating Pastrami. It was pretty good 👍👍👍 I liked it A lot... I'll be coming back soon....
Was in the area and wanted to try before going back to LA. Thought they’d have a bathroom to wash hands and pee but they didn’t have a bathroom for customers. Food was good but they didn’t have big bags for to go orders. A bit disappointed. Bring a bag when planning a big to go purchase.
